LiveCD Problems

[Matthew Dillon]

:1) dmesg | less shows that DF thinks I don't have an ATA-66 cable or 
:something of the like on my first IDE interface where my (only) hard 
:drive is connected, I do have an ATA-133 rated cable, and the hard drive 
:is an ATA-100 device.

    One thing to note here... there's a good chance that you don't
    actually have an ATA-133 rated cable.  There are a ton of cables
    being sold that look like they ought to be ATA-133 (e.g. they have
    the double density wires), but in fact are not.  I had a similar
    scratch-the-head situation and replacing the cable fixed the
    problem.
